In-depth safety analysis
The extension requests the "cookies" permission, which lets it read and modify all cookies for any website you visit. It also asks for host access to *://*/* and the "scripting" permission, allowing it to inject code into every page. These capabilities are broad but expected for a full-featured cookie editor that must manage cookies across domains and provide an editing interface directly on pages.
As a Privacy & Security tool, a cookie editor can handle highly sensitive data, including session tokens and authentication cookies. Users should know that any extension with blanket cookie and site access has the technical ability to capture such information. A careful practice is to install such tools only from publishers you trust and to review the permissions you grant.
The fact sheet shows Maintenance & Ownership as the strongest dimension (100/100), suggesting solid upkeep and clear provenance. Community Reputation is the weakest (57/100), with 31 ratings and a 3.4 average, which points to limited user feedback and mixed experiences rather than widespread community validation.
